LOVE NOTES

Raven & Franklin

My husband and I got engaged in April 2016 and from that point on I knew I needed the best wedding planner there was. I searched and searched until I just happen to find Lauren and her team. The weddings she did looked amazingly beautiful and I knew she had to be the one to plan my wedding. We spoke for a few months prior, just to get a idea of her style and if she in fact would be the right fit. When I consulted with my husband about her beautiful designs and talent, we knew she was the one!! After signing on that dotted like, we got to planning. Our planning began a year before my official wedding day and I can honestly say I don’t know anyone who does what she does and how her team does it! Every late night call, she’s accepted, every concept or idea I had, she was invested and every concern or moment of worry, she dealt with, all while having the most beautiful smile and humble spirit. Lauren and her team made sure, our wedding would be our dream come true. After over a year of planning, our wedding day finally came on August 30,2018 and I was blown away!!! My entire vision came to life in just an instant and it was all in collaboration with Lauren and her amazing team! I knew from jump I needed the best wedding planner there was but I never expected to get the worlds best planner there is! She is an absolute game changer. She is a force to be reckoned with. She is one of the sweetest, most intelligent and fierce woman I’ve known! She gets the job done with no complaints and will absolutely slayyyy your wedding for all enternity. If you don’t have Ms. Lauren and her team as your planners, you need to stop right now and reconsider your choice!! Book her now! To end this, Lauren thank you a million times over! You created a magical moment for me, my husband and family, for a lifetime to come! I hope you continue to strive for greatness and make every women’s dream come true like you did mine! Forever a friend in me Love, R&F

Wedding planning began right after I got engaged in April 2016. I began my search for a wedding planner on all the wedding websites as well as Instagram. I came across Lauren’s page, Elle Audrey New York and instantly fell in love. Over the next couple of months I watched Lauren and her team put together fairytale weddings. I decided it was time to contact Lauren and my husband and I booked her in December. We decided our theme would be Great Gatsby and Lauren had so many ideas. During the planning process Lauren came to Boston a couple times to meet with vendors to make sure everything was going in the right direction. She definitely helped to ease the process and was there to ask the RIGHT questions, questions the average person wouldn’t know to ask. On wedding day Lauren sent the “A” team lol, Ayanna, Ashley and Ana. They were AMAZING! Ana took care of the venue set-up along with the other vendors and Ayanna and Ashley made sure my husband and I had everything we needed. They also made sure to pack up and account for everything that we were taking home with us at the end of the night. Our wedding day went so smoothly it was unreal. Thank you so much to Lauren and the Elle Audrey team for everything. We honestly couldn’t have done it without their expertise

Wedding Day: June 10, 2018 Wedding Theme: Travel Lauren and her wonderful team did an amazing job of bring our travel themed wedding to fruition. My wife & I are huge planners. However, we did not want to be involved in the weeds of planning and execution of, what ended up being, a magnificent wedding. From the day we brought Lauren onboard she hit the ground running. She provided us with the necessary resources & tools which allowed us “first timers” the opportunity to fully understand nuances of planning a wedding. Although she was our planner, she always found ways to keep us engaged in the process. The uniqueness to working with Lauren was: her ability to be firm but flexible with us. Our wedding day was everything we envisioned and more. From the customized touches we added coupled with Lauren’s relationships with vendors who were able to excute our deliverables, to the jaw dropping first look of our wedding ceremony and reception space... Perfection! Lauren, we cannot thank you enough for making our day memorable. Our guest cannot stop mentioning how our wedding was one the best they have ever attended. all the Best, Mecka & Jay #Roadto10JS

I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am to have found Lauren! My wedding was beyond my wildest dreams and my guest will NOT stop talking about how fabulous everything was! Lauren and her team went well above and beyond in every aspect. She was with me every step of the way, through the good and trying times. The Elle Audrey team was extremely professional and easily accessible whenever I needed them. Lauren helped with everything from finding my dress to finding a food truck last minute to WOW my guests. From venue tours, food/cake tasting, floral appointments etc, Lauren was there and on time! I trusted her expertise and couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. On my wedding My toddler son splilled red juice on his shirt and by the time I got word of what I thought would be a disaster, the Elle Audrey team had already went a purchased another shirt! Problem solved! My wedding day was nothing short of amazing! Lauren did a great job with giving me exactly what I had envisioned! She worked well within my budget, and gave awesome professional advice. Throughout the entire planning period I had not one bit of stress and every minute was a joy. I could go on forever about the way I feel about the Elle Audrey team! ZERO complaints!!! I can NOT WAIT to have another event using this team and would recommend them to anyone I know! Lauren became apart of my family! A dream come true, and I can Thank the Elle Audrey team for that! They are the VERY BEST!!!

All we can say to Lauren is thank you thank you thank you!! Lauren and her team were able to provide my wife and I with the wedding of our dreams. Even with our crazy work schedules, Lauren was able to always make herself available and adjust to address all of our concerns and needs. Her expertise and connections with great vendors made the planning process so much easier on our end. Most importantly the feeling of walking into the reception and seeing my wife's vision of her dream wedding actually come to life was the best feeling in the world! With all the moving parts involved on the day of the wedding, Lauren and her team did a great job of keeping everything on track and made sure my wife didn't have to worry/stress about anything. From our first meeting with Lauren we knew it was a no brainer to have her plan our wedding. She immediately treated us as a top priority and we felt as if we knew her for years just from our first interaction. A lot of her suggestions and direction showed her desire to make our wedding unique and OURS. The wedding and reception were both able to capture and embody the love and personality of my wife and I. We really couldn't have asked for anything more! Thank you so much Elle's Couture Events for literally making dreams come true!

Lauren elevated my wedding to celebrity status. I only had about 10 weeks to plan and through her coordination and incredible attention to detail, I literally showed up to meet the vendors and approved everything on the spot. The design concept will never be duplicated. She got my style and even though the wedding was almost 6 months ago, everyone that sees my husband and I are still talking about all the wonderful details. Thank you Lauren, you are the best. See you for the next big event.

There aren't enough stars to express how amazing it was to partner with Elle’s Couture Events when planning our fall wedding. I found Lauren and her team to be exceedingly creative and thoughtful. They took the time to really LISTEN to what my (now) husband and I wanted for our dream wedding. Not only did they capture what we wanted, they EXCEEDED it. It has been several months since the day of our wedding, and yet I am still spinning with joy and receiving endless compliments regarding how smoothly the day ran and how beautiful the decor was. Lauren and Elle's Couture Events will plan EVERY major event of my life. Of that, I'm sure. The best part, the amazing icing on the cake, Lauren and her team aren't just service providers. They are family and close friends. What a blessing to have the wisdom to choose "Elle" and her girls!!!

Excellent Excellent Excellent... Elle's Couture Events delivered beyond my expectations. They were so detailed... Nothing was left undone. I must say once you have an encounter with them... You become family. My wedding was spectacular... Lauren and her Team did make my wedding day a day that myself, my family and guest an unforgettable experience . I love them.

Melissa + Jumel

I don't even know where to begin in describing how grateful we are for the Elle’s Couture Events team. We hired Lauren 10 months into wedding planning and 7 months before our big day and we wished we hired her from the beginning. My husband and I couldn't have been more pleased with Lauren and her team for pulling off an amazing wedding. Elle’s Couture Events took care of every detail for our 208 guests wedding. We had our wedding at a country club on Long Island, and the logistics, particularly our poolside ceremony location, were handled effortlessly by Lauren and her staff. Our decision to utilize the pool as our wedding backdrop instead of the traditional gazebo, proved to be an excellent decision. Lauren also attended cake tastings and vendor walkthroughs with us, and helped to make our vision of a classic wedding with modern/glam touches come to life. She offered stellar vendor recommendations for everything from linen rentals to the band. She answered my questions about wedding etiquette, and took charge of the ceremony, rehearsal and wedding day timelines, allowing our families to just enjoy the day. Even with an unfortunate passing of her close family member, Lauren remained a true professional. Lauren’s assistance alone on the week leading up to my wedding makes her and her staff worth every single penny. There were so many little things that Lauren and her staff did on the day-of (and I'm sure my bridesmaids were glad I didn't have to delegate those tasks to them either!) Lauren and her team handled day of issues in a professional way keeping my husband and I at ease. ECE works hard for you and will really make you feel special and like royalty. I HIGHLY recommend Lauren and the entire Elle’s Couture Events team.

Choosing Elle's Couture was the best decision we made. Lauren took my wedding to a entirely different level. Every detail was absolutely perfect and our wedding was the BEST!!! Our guests are literally begging us to have a party every year. But the best part about choosing Lauren was that I made a friend. I called her at any time, she came over and we worked throughout the evening getting things done. She is AWESOME!!!

Lauren and the Elle Couture Girls were game changers for our wedding. Although we were getting married in Brooklyn, my now husband and I live in Florida. Lauren was able to jump right in and save the day when my previous venue (Deity) became less than helpful 2 months into the planning process. She was able to set up meetings during our two visits to NY from flowers to catering to invitations. When the day of the wedding finally arrived I wasn't feeling well. My lady in waiting took very good care of me, making me tea and did her best to calm down my mother. When we reached the venue (W Loft) we were amazed! Everything was gorgeous! The layout, the linens and all of the little surprises she managed to keep from me made everything perfect! Guests are still talking about our wedding. We wanted a Brooklyn wedding with flair and that's exactly what the Elle's Couture team provided. Her vendors are all extremely professional and nice. Everyone from the baker to the videographer were top notch. The Elle Couture team have the patience that cannot be matched. Any concern was addressed and we are so very happy to have come across Lauren and her team. We recommend her highly to anyone planning their wedding. She will take your vision to another level!

Dominique + Devon

If I did not have Lauren as my wedding planner I DON'T know what I would've done on my wedding day. There is NO way my planning process and wedding day would have went smoothly without Lauren. She handled every obstacle with style, grace, and most of all Professionally. I was a person who doubted that I would've needed a wedding planner and boy was I wrong. Everything was executed flawlessly because of Elle couture events. Lauren attended all of my vendor meetings, she sent me a detail description of my day, kept me calm the day of my Wedding, and the list goes onnnnn and onnnnn!!!! Thank you Elle's couture events for making 7-9-15 the best day of my life. You will forever be apart of my story! 💜💜💜

Sabine + Warren

When I say I disliked the wedding planning process, that is an understatement. A couple of months out I was referred to Lauren Beamon at Elle's Couture Events. Besides picking my groom, that was the best decision I could have made! Lauren and her team were PHENOMENAL!!! I was a difficult bride. I didn't want to look at one more vendor, one more napkin. Lauren was gentle but firm and she helped me pick out my last vendors and added touches that made the day come together. She was available to me whenever I had questions and she met me at my home due to my crazy schedule. Honorable mention goes to Judlyne for taking care of me during my prep and transportation. The Elle's team removed all stress from us on that day and we were able to enjoy our wedding! I really can't say enough about the team. My girlfriend also had a spectacular wedding that Elle's Couture Events did the planning for. It looked like a million dollar wedding! Hire them!! You will not be disappointed!

Melissa + David

Lauren did a fantastic job as our day-of-coordinator! We reached out to her only a couple of months before our New Year's Eve wedding because we realized we really needed some help for the day of the wedding and it was the best decision we made in the whole planning process! Lauren was extremely responsive and resourceful and she has a joyful personality that was so awesome to be around during the stress of wedding planning. Lauren helped us find a last minute vendor, and she and her assistant set up the entire wedding space and made sure the night went smoothly (including helping us DJ our own wedding on iPads). We had a tough issue at the last minute with a guest with a broken foot at a venue with staircases and no elevator, and Lauren did an awesome job of rolling with the punches and helping us adjust our timeline and logistics to make sure that everything went smoothly. She really allowed us and our families to let go of the details and enjoy the night, and that was invaluable.

Lauren has now become a valued friend. She started off as my planner, and during the 2 months it took to put my event together, we got used to having to talk to each other everyday. So much so that we started dreading the actual day of the party because we didn't want our daily interactions to end! She is as creative as they come, she truly cares and delivers the best for each individual client. Lauren added so much value to my party, she came through with every minute detail we had discussed. She even threw in some surprises that I loved on the actual day. Lauren is the type of planner that gets you, and makes your vision of your event come to life in ways that you thought impossible.

If you want someone who's dedicated, talented, creative...Lauren is your girl! I would hire her over and over again if I had to. What she did for my event was unmeasurable and unmatched.

Working with Elle's Couture Events for my destination wedding was a bride's dream come true! Planning a wedding in another country is no simple feat, but Lauren made it look so easy. I loved my destination resort venue, however I did not want a "wedding in a box". After contacting Lauren with just a little over 30 days until my wedding date, she designed and took over every stunning detail. She inspired endless opportunities and I fell in love moments after meeting her. Once we got started, she didn't miss a beat. With time not in our side, her passion and dedication executed a wedding far beyond what I could ever imagine. The result was the most gorgeous, elegant , and memorable wedding Jamaica has seen to date. Upon entering into our reception room reveal, my husband and I were in complete awe. It is true! Lauren is a superstar and an extremely talented wedding planner. This is complimented by her ability to make her bride feel uniquely special, as though you are her only client. This made me love her even that much more. Lauren also has an equally awesome support team. Ayanna, her assistant is an absolute angel and never left my side on my wedding day. Overall, Elle's Couture Events is an exceptional company to work with. My only regret is not finding and hiring them sooner. I highly recommend Lauren to any couple wishing to have a completely happy wedding planning experience.
